HUAWEI has announced the Pura X Max, its latest flagship foldable to date, marking the Chinese technology giant's breakthrough in the foldable scene.

Announced on April 20 in China, the HUAWEI Pura X Max carries a book-style form factor that turns into a compact tablet when unfolded.

Compared to the traditional foldables, the Pura X Max distances itself from the narrow design. It features a 7.7-inch wide inner display and a 5.4-inch cover display. Both displays come in OLED panels with a 120Hz refresh rate and support for the HUAWEI M-Pen 3 Mini stylus.
